Requested a table for 8 for a family event and asked for sandwiches, cream tea and cakes. Responded when promised to confirm that they could cater for us. Coffee was good, the scones were delicious, a good variety of sandwiches were served along with a couple of types of cake to finish off with. Service was very friendly too. I would definitely return.

Plenty of seating plus the option of being outside of you want, with a great sized pot of tea (plus it's leaves not a bag) and the sandwiches was lovely (probably the best coronation chicken sandwich I've had).

Popped in for a takeaway caramel latte and chai latte and the service was faultless! Lovely, polite and chatty staff behind the counter as I waited for my drinks, thank you all for being so welcoming. Will definitely be visiting again!

Only intended to stop for a drink but was tempted by the prospect of a bacon, sausage and egg roll. Good homely food, well cooked, served piping hot and nicely presented. An excellent pot of tea was served with extra hot water and additional milk provided with a smile for OH who likes milky tea. The rear half of the cafe is light and bright. The courtyard looked like a good spot for summer (if it ever arrives!). Some of the cafe is rather dark and perhaps some better lighting would be useful. But we’ll certainly return.
